Default Re: ling reel

Purchased a Alijo 400. Reel holds 306 yds. of 40lb braid or 240 yds. of mono. would like to put on backing before braid . Fishing 250 foot depth. Can someone calculate mono backing I need. Would a tackle store know how much the ratio is to fill reel.
Info appreciated.

Howard

Put enough mono backer to cover the spool a couple times. Or use a double faced foam type of tape to tie it to. Tie it off to your braid and spool with TENSION. Or just go to a tackle shop and let them spool it up for you.

FYI that reel feels decent with the power handle it has.
